Anyone know if this app is going to be updated to work on iOS 8? Currently none of the bonus apps are useable on iOS 8. The calculator inverts the colours on the toolbar at the top of the screen. Also the calculator notification per operation option doesn't work. For the notes as soon as the screen is locked the any dice notification pops up in the middle of the lock screen with no delay at all and never goes to the pebble.

As I only got it for the bonus effects this is currently useless for me until these issues are fixed.

I use 5s with iOS 8.0.2. Anydice bonuses work perfectly. I mean perfectly..

That's great for you but doesn't help me at all. I'm on a 5s and the calculator does not display correctly. Notes doesn't work either but I'm not too bothered about that. I'd be interested to see a screen shot of your any dice calculator. Last time I reported a bug on an app somebody posted that his worked perfectly but when he posted a screen shot his was actually far from perfect and his screen shot led to the bug getting fixed.

I'm the developer behind Any Dice. Sorry to hear you're having issues with it, due to a wonderfully timed house move I've not had chance to get everything tested and subsequently bug fixed for iOS 8. I should be in a position to start digging in the next couple of days and will get an update on to the App Store as soon as I possibly can.

For the notes and calculator notifications to work correctly with a pebble, set the Notification alert style to banner, show on lock screen off, and Show in notification centre on. Also make sure your pebble is working with other notifications on the phone, as all Any Dice does is posts it to your notification centre. The OS handles the rest (including sending it to the pebble).

Apart from the system status bar being the incorrect colour, are there currently any other issues with the layout of the Calendar? (I'm still running iOS 7 and my Mac is packed away ready for my move!)

Thanks

Will

The only two problems with the calculator are the status bar and the per operation notification doesn't work. The other calculator notifications work.

This is not a glitch as much as it is a feature I would love to see for a future update.

I would like to have an "open in" checkbox feature. For example if we want the app to Open In Notes when the home screen icon is pressed we check that box.

Yes I know we can open the app and click on notes or calculator then exit the app. Well I have found that if your phone goes to sleep or if you bring up the lock screen the app automatically defaults back to opening at Any Dice.

I have jail broken my phone and changed the Any Dice icon into a Notes Icon. So I would love to be able to have some insurance that when I handed a spec my phone and they hit the "notes" icon they would actually be opening the fake "notes app. Wouldn't that be awesome?!?!?."

That would be awesome!

While we're on the topic of wish list features I'd love to see a way to copy or transport notes from the real notes to any dice. A "profile" of some sort. Or multiple profiles. Id love to trade profiles with other any dice users. Not to mention it's an easy way to back up if you lose your phone or what not (because real notes are backed up to the cloud).

I probably use this app more than any other at this point - just the bonus notes feature.

If you didn't hear the thud of me smacking myself on the noggin you must have had headphones on. Why buy an app and not explore all the potential it has? Yep, that's exactly what I did with Any Dice (which I really liked how it worked with my Pebble before I discovered that something special that it does). And a whole world of possibilities has opened up. Oorah!

So now (at some point in my act) I can ask someone if they have an iPhone. If they say "No, I open notes in Any Dice and give them my phone (---------> any kind of reveal). If they say yes, I say "Great. Here's my phone. I'm going to have you open it." Either way it leads to some strong mentalism. IMHO

I hope that you discovered the calculator too... a thing of beauty... Jan

Thanks, Jan. Yes, I did "discover" the calculator, but my head is still swimming from that other "discovery". Any Dice bonus features plus Pebble = Wow! IMHO

I bought the pebble for this app when it first came out, and have not regretted it at all. The bonus section makes this combo a modern utility imp:). No ink, and no paper for the environmentally conscious!

I've never used anything but the bonus feature. It's how I perform IS and a few other things. Totally fits into my character to say I'm studying numerology and I keep notes on what means what.

Fire Starter, I use a 4s with the pebble and Anydice - works great:) The pebble is a great buy, and there are other apps that can work with it as well.
